"Fancy Oregon potatoes are worth I i

"Taken altogether., I am of the opin

Trade in the hop market durln the
past 24 hours was extensive at prices

Just .whether this means a war' be
tween local (milling interests and export
buyers, the"-trade has been unable to
explain, but the conditions that exist
today are very similar to those in effect
a few years ago when, a fight started.
However, at that time foreign markets
were good, and steadily advancing, while
today they are sick and drooping. ,
While a change in export flour la re-
forted by northern millers, no sfich ae
lon has been taken here., Local mills'
say tney are unaware of any such price
movement in the north-.
Coarse grains are weak, with a limited
movement. .

In about two weeks the cheese making
season at Tillamook will come to an

with the custom there which allows the
cows to run dry for a period of three
months. , , - ' ,
; The make, of cheese la showinr . a
heavy decrease recently. The fall out
put has been a.dlsappoIntment While
It isusually arule for-the make to
show considerable increase during the
early-fall, the ground was so dry at
that time this aeason and the rains
came so late that little Improvement
over the -late summer was noted.
considering tne fact that cheese mak
ing. Is almost at an end for this season,
stocks ,held In Storage are exceedingly
light They fall fully 60 pef cent under

Examination of the petitions for the
nomination of Judge John B. Cleland
for reelection to the circuit court die
closes the fact that men of every class
signed the petitions. Thus far there
has been no substantiation of charges
made-oy those opposed to Cleland that
he was being supported by the wealthier
class and not by the rank and file.
One of the petitions waa circulated
by two waiters who have known Judge
Cleland, and volunteered to get at least
one petition filled. Another petition.
containing 94 signatures, came from
the men employed along Front street, as
well as the commission merchants. Still
another petition waa a-eneraiiv 'sis-nod
